WAX ON : WAX OFF
@ Warehouse (Prince Street, Bristol)
Friday 23rd May 2008
£2 b4 11, £4 after
Well, we're back. After repeatedly filling the Cavern Club to capacity last year, we decided we needed a bigger venue and Warehouse seems like just the place for the return of WAX ON : WAX OFF.
This time we'll be bringing you fat dirty breakbeats downstairs and jaw-dropping psy-trance soundscapes upstairs as we stretch our legs to fill two rooms with the breaks, beats and big bad bass that you know and love. We’ll have free cds and random stuff to give away, and we’re running at minimal cost to the clubber - just £2 b4 11, £4 after for an immersive, involving night of clubbing that you won’t forget in a hurry.
ROBOSAPIENS
After a successful tour with Phil Collins, being cleared of all charges and a stint in rehab, Dead Famous label bosses the Robosapiens are back!
These guys have got a well deserved reputation for tearin' it up where ever they go - recent release INFECTED, with its tale of backstage excess (thank you Collins) and insistent fans, wears its twisted tech funk sensibilities bold and brash. Add the boys’ love of all things acid, phat synths, a punk vocal hook and you’re left with a dance floor bomb that’s just a taste of the new material you’ll hear in their massive hour and a half set at WAX ON : WAX OFF.
With their album dropping later in the year, an Annie Nightingale Radio 1 session and a hectic gigging schedule, 2008 is shaping up to be an exciting year for the Robosapiens.

We'll also have visuals from WeAreGod.co.uk, bringing you old school hardware design combined with state-of-the-art computer systems, multiple projectors onto multiple multi-layer screens with midi controlled sources outputted through feedback and interference, of all aspects of video, across dimensions.
Plus roaming surrealism from Are You The Farmer’s Psy-Kiedo SideShow – even we’re not really sure what this is going to entail, but we’re sure you’re gonna enjoy finding out. More (sort of) at www.areyouthefarmer.com.
